Daniel, not helpful... There are plenty of people who actually still enjoy playing that game. For example, look at the campaigns we are still hosting here for 1942 nowadays. It attracts still a big base of players
Anyway, if I am right it should be doable by changing the resolution manually in one of the ini's ( I am not certain anymore which file it was ). At the resolution you had to fill in a custom resolution, after that it is important not to change your settings anymore OR make the file readable only (right-click on file, properties, I think you know where the option is ).
I read this somewhere I think a year ago or so I would have to look again exactly where it was. If I get more info I will let you know. It was a small workaround, as as you know widescreen is not officially supported in 1942..

Change it from Program Files/Ea Games/Battlefield 1942
Find video.con, videodefault.con change them both and make them read-only. Better do it for every profile file to be sure. It works like a charm.
Daniel, I'm seeing this bullshit posts of yours for a while now, I'm still playing this game, maybe it may come as a joke to you, which is PR for me, but I^m not saying anything about the games people play here.
This is a really bad attitude and stop it. Consider this as a heads-up from a 8 year old vet.
